“The individual investor is so complacent right now,” says Portfolio manager Michael Pento, “It’s unimaginable.” Investors are waiting for the government to save the markets, but “that is not happening this time. It’s going to be too little, too late.” The Fed has started draining their balance sheet by $95 billion per month. Pento expects a complete freeze in the money markets by first quarter 2023.
